Golden Bullet and its two companion short stories, Pool of Blood and Registered Letter, won't appeal to every taste but are distinctive in breaking away from the Sherlock Holmes personality that that so many mysteries of this period utilize.
From the title I expected a Gothic mystery with mystic overtones. Nothing could be further from the truth, as this is typical wise-cracking 1920s and 30s humor with hardly a smidgen of real suspense.
Biggers is a good writer but it takes more than a decent command of language to create a memorable story. An amusing if slow read, the title is the best thing about it.
